Are they the saves for the rom or is it a save state? I know saves on something like GBA need to be configured for flash type but idk if the same is needed for DS games.
From the ROM. I've actually not tried a state because I usually don't use them.
This is an interesting point. One of my other devices is my android, so flash, but another is a laptop with an HDD.
Ah sorry GBA games have like 5 different save types based on the flash used in them. Like EEPROM, SRAM, and FLASH. Usually that'd need to be configured in the emulator for the save type per game if it isn't auto detected but I'm not aware of that being the case for DS. You could try a save state on one device and see if it loads on another.
